Somaliland’s Former Industry Minister runs a bakery

[Deeq A.]

Somaliland’s former industry minister, Hon. Shuaib Mohamed Muse has a new venture– running a bread industry in Hargeisa, Somaliland’s capital.  The former politician is chairman and controlling of a firm operating a business serving bread. The bakery industry is located next to Mansor Hotel which lies in the north west of Hargeisa. At least three former government ministers under president Silanyo’s administration started a new business after they have failed to get a ministerial portfolio in Bihi’s cabinet. Former tourism minister also started a teaching post at high school in Hargeisa.

What a surprise. First good thing they are staying put at home and secondly getting busy and productive. Not something politicians do even in America. Once a politician they get stuck in it and circle around it.

Great idea for money laundering, he may as well open car wash.

The question is, where did he get the money to open a large bakery?

Holac,

On the positive side:

1. For sure he had some money before becoming minister. There is no poor average that becomes minister anywhere in the world. You need to have fairly good job or money to even attend meetings let alone to be connected and famiiliar enough to be minister.

2. He could have saved since most expenses of ministers are paid/reimbursed

3. Someone who has been minister can easily get loans

 

Negative side:

Sorry I do not know enough to answer the question, but guess which is never good against character of individual.

Amazing! He is finally able to follow his dreams

Well done former minister.

 

The South East Asian model, where politicians invest money back in the economy is  much better option than the African model.

in Somaliland its fairly easy to set up a business. almost every business venture has a very high chance of success and there's a huge demand for bread. now, on the issue of where he got the money to open the bakery, there are all sort of financial arrangements available. the formal and informal financial mechanisms in Somaliland are very advanced. for all we know, he's a share holder and not the owner. the galbeed people in Somaliland are industrious and hardworking. we could learn from their excellent work ethic.
